Nanomaterials, which can effectively enhance the contact area between sensors and target molecules.This enhancement significantly improves sensor detection sensitivity, making them invaluable for flexible wearable sensors widely utilized in various applications [9].Currently, a wide array of nanomaterials, ranging from zero-dimensional particles to one-dimensional, twodimensional (2D), and three-dimensional (3D) composite structures, are currently being employed to develop advanced sensors [10].Among them, 2D layered materials have an atomically thin planar structure, excellent mechanical flexibility and electrical properties, offer a multitude of surface-active sites, which can perform high-sensitivity and selective response to specific analytes [11,12].2D nanomaterials encompass a diverse group of substances characterized by their atomic layer thickness, signifying that their dimensions are minimized to the extreme in one direction while remaining relatively large in the other two dimensions [13].It is ideal for building flexible and wearable sensors [14].With the continuous development of 2D materials, composite materials with heterogeneous structures can be created by doping various nanomaterials or molecules to further increase the ability of sensors.In addition, flexible wearable sensors with 2D materials are easier to assemble with systems such as self-power supply, wireless transportation, and therapeutic feedback to build integrated monitoring and therapeutic systems [2,15,16].
Graphene holds the distinction of being the most common and extensively validated 2D material.Novoselov and colleagues reported the advanced 2D graphene, obtained through mechanical exfoliation from highly oriented cracked graphite, showcasing its distinctive and outstanding electrical properties [17].Since then, 2D materials, led by graphene, have experienced rapid development, giving rise to various new materials.The quantum confinement effect in atomic layer imparts unique properties to these 2D materials, setting them apart from their 3D counterparts.Consequently, they have garnered significant interest from both scientific and industrial communities.Apart from graphene, there exists a wide array of 2D materials including: single-element silicene, germanene, stannene, boronene, black phosphorus, transition metal chalcogenides, main group metal chalcogenides, etc [18].Indeed, these 2D materials exhibit vastly diverse energy band structures and electrical properties, encompassing a wide spectrum from superconductors, semiconductors to insulators.Simultaneously, they boast outstanding optical, mechanical, thermal, and magnetic properties.By strategically stacking different types of 2D materials, it's possible to create highly functional material systems.This capability is anticipated to drive applications in high-performance electronic, optoelectronic devices, as well as in energy conversion and storage technologies [19].

Graphene
Graphene, characterized by its honeycomb lattice of carbon atoms, exhibits remarkable electron transport capabilities, thermal conductivity, mechanical strength, and biocompatibility [22].Graphene-based flexible wearable sensors have been employed to detect a wide array of physical, chemical and physiological parameters, including pressure, temperature, pH value, cell, DNA, protein and other signals, and have found widespread application in flexible electronics and wearable devices [23].Wan et al. used reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and graphene oxide (GO) to develop an all-graphene capacitive pressure sensor (Fig. 1a).The application of a slight external pressure causes the distance between the upper and lower electrodes to decrease.This change leads to an increase in capacitance, enabling the conversion between pressure and capacitance.The sensor can quickly respond to the external pressure of 0.24 Pa, and achieves an impressive pressure sensitivity of 0.8 kPa −1 even under minimal pressure conditions [24].Single-layer graphene has a zero bandgap, which limits its response time and photoelectric efficiency for use in sensors.To improve its electrical properties, surface engineering can be used to introduce functional groups into graphene, thus expanding its potential applications in a variety of fields.Pang et al. innovatively crafted an unique graphene network structure using chemical vapor deposition and chemical etching techniques.The authors utilized this structure to create a highly efficient humidity sensor tailored for applications in human healthcare and activity monitoring (Fig. 1b) [25].
Graphene-based multifunctional textiles designed for sensing applications are considered ideal devices for health monitoring.Porous fibers, consisting of graphene and adorned with nanoballs, were meticulously crafted using an extended phase-separation process.This method significantly reduced the interconnection between graphene sheets and polymers by minimizing the contact area, as illustrated in Fig. 1c.The designed structure bestowed the graphene fibers with remarkably high gauge factors, measuring 51 in the 0-5% strain range and 87 in the 5-8% strain range.These values were nearly 10 times larger than similar structures lacking nanoballs.Furthermore, the graphene fibers exhibited a detection of 0.01% strain and remarkable durability, enduring 6000 cycling without deterioration.Due to its cost-effectiveness and swift fabrication process, combined with its outstanding performance and flexibility, the developed sensor exhibits significant potential in the realm of future wearable electronics.Ren et al. also contributed to this field by creating a wearable graphenebased textile utilizing advanced techniques.Graphene Scheme 1 A brief introduction of two-dimensional material-based sustainable wearable energy devices.Reproduced with permission [20].Copyright 2022, Springer Nature.Reproduced with permission [21].Copyright 2021, Elsevier Ltd was meticulously transferred onto the textile, forming a sandwich-like structure comprising the textile, graphene, and thermal-transfer film, as depicted in Fig. 1d.This innovative design resulted in a composite.The graphene-based multifunctional textile exhibited an impressive coefficient of determination, reaching as high as 0.993.The graphene-based multifunctional textile demonstrated remarkable stability under continuous pressure, withstanding up to 1000 kPa, and exhibited rapid responsiveness with a quick response time of approximately 85 ms at 4.2 Pa for pressure sensing.When utilized as a physiological electric sensor, graphene-based multifunctional textile showed good detection capability when measuring the signals.Furthermore, this textile can emit specific warning sounds for health monitoring relying on the thermoacoustic effect rather than relying on mechanical vibrations.In summary, this highly linear and multifunctional integrated graphene-based textile, with its compatibility in the manufacturing process, is anticipated to significantly enhance the practical applications of in situ health monitoring [26].

Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs)
Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are typically denoted by the chemical formula MX 2 , where M signifies a transition metal, and X represents a chalcogen atom [30].Examples of TMDs include molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2 ), vanadium disulfide (VS 2 ), tungsten disulfide (WS 2 ), tungsten diselenide (WSe 2 ), and similar compounds [31].TMDs have a wide band gap greater than 1 eV and excellent electrical properties, belong to the category of 2D materials frequently employed in wearable sensors [32].Atomically thin MoS 2 nanosheets have excellent flexibility, biocompatibility, and electrical properties, TMDs represent the most promising materials within their category and find extensive applications in the fields of physics, chemistry, and biosensors [33].Chen et al. developed an implantable multifunctional sensor using monolayer molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2 ) through an in-situ chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process in phosphate buffered saline solutions.The process involved varying temperatures and pH levels to achieve the desired sensor configuration (Fig. 1e, f ).The MoS 2 -based bioabsorbable sensors created have the capability to monitor various parameters, including pressure, temperature, strain, and acceleration.In addition, the sensor is biodegradable and can be completely degraded within a few months, avoiding side effects in biomedical applications [28].Park et al. harnessed the semiconducting and mechanical properties of MoS 2 to create a large-area tactile sensor.This sensor exhibited an impressive pressure detection range from 1 to 120 kPa, surpassing the sensing capabilities of human skin.Moreover, it demonstrated multi-point high-sensitivity detection, allowing for  [26].Copyright 2021, American Chemical Society.e, f Reproduced with permission [28].Copyright 2018, Springer Nature.g, h Reproduced with permission [29] Copyright 2019, American Chemical Society precise identification of object shapes by simultaneously monitoring external pressure at multiple stages [34].
TMDs-based composite materials as substrates can improve the quantum yield of flexible wearable sensors, optimize the selectivity, and sensitivity of the sensors.Park et al. employed a selective synthesis method, utilizing laser beam annealing, to grow a WS 2 layer on the MoS 2 layer.They constructed a strain sensor using the WS 2 /MoS 2 heterojunction material.Consequently, this sensor configuration proved effective in stably monitoring the movement of the human wrist [35].Using the MoS 2 /graphene heterostructure as a foundation, Lee et al. prepared a high-performance strain sensor.When subjected to mechanical strain, the piezoelectric ion charges induced by the strain in MoS 2 cause a shift in the Fermi level of graphene, altering the corresponding Schottky barrier in the graphene/MoS 2 junction.This innovative design resulted in a sensor with an exceptionally high gauge factor, reaching 5.8 × 10 5 .Notably, the value is 500 times greater than conventional metal/MoS 2 junction strain sensors, as illustrated in Fig. 1g, h [29].

Transition metal carbides/nitrides (MXenes)
The general formula for MXene materials is M n+1 X n or M n+1 X n T x (n = 1 ~ 3), where M stands for early transition metals like Ti, Zr, V, Nb, or Mo, etc., X represents C or N, and T x represents surface functional groups like -OH, -O, -F, etc. [36] MXene exhibits outstanding electrical conductivity, mechanical flexibility, and chemical stability.The properties of MXene can be significantly improved through appropriate surface modification techniques, thereby expanding the potential applications of MXene in wearable sensors [37].Recently, MXenes, a novel addition to the 2D materials family, have garnered significant interest owing to their remarkable conductivity (reaching up to ~ 10 5 S cm −1 ), high pseudo-capacitance (up to 1600 F cm −3 ), robust mechanical properties, and excellent hydrophilicity.These characteristics position them as highly promising materials for wearable energy devices.However, creating MXene electrodes that possess optimal electrical, electrochemical, and mechanical properties simultaneously remains a significant challenge.This difficulty stems from their inherently weak interlaminar interactions and small particle size [38].Zhang et al. introduced a self-healing Ti 3 C 2 MXene/polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) supramolecular elastomer, facilitated by intermolecular interactions, demonstrating exceptional mechanical strength, stability, and electrical sensitivity (Fig. 2a).The raw material utilized was D-asparagine from Liliaceae plants, modified through carboxyl and hydroxyl esterification.Additionally, 3,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde from forest plants was grafted onto PDMS macromolecules containing amino groups via imine bonds formed through a Schiff base reaction.This Ti 3 C 2 MXene/PDMS elastomer exhibited self-healing capabilities at room temperature, attributed to the presence of hydrogen and imine bonds.Following healing, the material's mechanical and electrical properties were almost entirely restored.The uniform dispersion of MXenes within the polymer system resulted in excellent electrical conductivity and sensitivity to changes in stress state.Notably, the mended material successfully monitored both large and small movements of human muscles [39].Ren et al. developed a highly sensitive Mxene-based sensor for large-scale image comprising 1250 pixels.The sensor exhibited remarkable performance characteristics due to the synergistic energy level alignment and near-infrared resonance properties between Ti 3 C 2 and perovskite.Notably, the sensor demonstrated high responsivity at 84.77 AW −1 , specific detectivity of 3.22 × 1012 Jones, and an extensive linear dynamic range (LDR) of up to 82 dB across a broad wavelength spectrum from visible to near-infrared (Fig. 2b, c) [40].
MXene can be combined with other functional materials to leverage the synergistic advantages between these materials, resulting in the development of high-performance flexible wearable sensors.For instance, Chao et al. dispersed MXene and polyaniline fiber (PANIF) layers onto an elastic rubber substrate, creating a wearable MXene/PANIF strain sensor with a laminated structure.This strain sensor demonstrated the ability to detect a wide range of human motions (up to 80% strain) with an exceptionally low detection limit (0.1538% strain), high sensitivity [up to 2369.1 for the gauge factor (GF)], and exhibited excellent reproducibility and stability.As illustrated in Fig. 2d, the sensor can be affixed to the skin to monitor human respiration, pulse, and knuckle motion.It boasts a wide strain sensing range, an incredibly low detection limit, high sensitivity, and outstanding cycle stability [41].Li et al. introduced a pure Ti 3 C 2 Tx MXene aerogel fiber through a straightforward dynamic sol-gel spinning process followed by supercritical CO 2 drying.These MXene aerogel fibers showcased a unique oriented mesoporous structure and possessed electrothermal/ photothermal dual-responsiveness owing to their high electrical conductivity and excellent light absorption capabilities.The amalgamation of these features positions MXene aerogel fibers as highly promising materials for applications in flexible wearable devices, smart fabrics, and portable equipment [42].

Other 2D nanomaterials
2D materials like black phosphorus (BP) and hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) have found applications in flexible wearable sensors [45].BP boasts a simple manufacturing process, a large specific surface area, excellent electrical properties, and high carrier mobility.However, BP is prone to instability and oxidation when exposed to environmental oxidants, necessitating efforts to enhance its stability in sensors [46].Introducing a passivation layer is a common method to improve BP sensor stability [47].However, this approach often reduces sensor sensitivity, limiting BP's application in high-performance sensors.Furthermore, there are ongoing debates about the cytotoxicity and biocompatibility of BP, which restrict its use in flexible wearable sensors.
h-BN, with its excellent biocompatibility, high specific surface area, and efficient photoelectric conversion properties, stands as a key contender for wearable sensors [48].In their work, Fabio et al. constructed a flexible sensor for the quantitative monitoring of NO and NO 2 gas molecules, showcasing exceptional selectivity and sensitivity through the h-BN/graphene heterostructure (Fig. 2e) [43].Additionally, Liu et al. introduced a novel approach, utilizing a 2D h-BN atomic layer film as a pre-orientation layer to achieve high orientation consistency directly on the surface of polycrystalline Cu paper (Fig. 2f, g) [44].Leveraging the atomically smooth, dangling bond-free surface and hexagonal lattice properties of h-BN, this method holds promise for various applications.The elucidation of the nucleation, orientation, and stress release mechanisms of h-BN pre-guided ZnO nanocolumn arrays provides crucial theoretical insights and technical guidelines for the application of h-BN and other 2D materials in pre-guided layers.Furthermore, a novel h-BN/ZnO nanocolumn/h-BN sandwich structure, along with a Schottky dielectric interface, was developed.This innovation led to the creation of a flexible and transparent piezoelectric nanogenerator thin film device, a breakthrough where the dielectric layer thickness was reduced to an atomic monolayer.Remarkably, this device showcased an exceptionally high-power generation density of 169 mW cm −2 .It was effectively employed in harvesting mechanical energy from human body movements such as walking and running, as well as in smart portable chargers.This achievement highlights the tremendous potential of flexible and transparent piezoelectric nanogenerators in the realm of future wearable self-powered electronics.

2D nanomaterials for sensing
Sensors play a pivotal role in wearable electronic devices, and the future trajectory emphasizes their miniaturization and refinement [49].Currently, the market offers a wide array of sensors, among which inertial measurement devices, particularly accelerometers, are prevalent.Accelerometers are capable of tracking specific movement data, direction, strength, or speed of motion.For instance, in a mobile phone or tablet, when the device is rotated (input), the accelerometer processes this motion and adjusts the screen orientation accordingly (output).In the realm of sensors, 2D materials find extensive applications, particularly in electrochemical biosensors, gas sensors, and piezoresistive sensors.This prevalence is due to the unique structure and adjustable pore size of 2D materials, which enhance the detection performance of various substances.Flexible piezoresistive sensors, a vital component of wearable devices, consist of flexible substrates and conductive sensitive materials [50].Graphene, renowned for its exceptional electrical conductivity and bending strength, finds extensive application in such sensors.Yang et al. pioneered the development of a flexible electronic skin for pressure sensing, utilizing graphene films.The image of the graphene-based sensor is illustrated in Fig. 3a.The electronic skin comprises 4 × 4 tactile sensing units, encompassing three distinct layers: the lower substrate (constructed from polyimide substrate), the pressure-resistance layer (comprising graphene/polyethylene glycol film), and the upper layer made of polydimethylsiloxane.The underlying principle of this sensor involves leveraging the pressure-resistance effect exhibited by graphene materials.When pressure is applied, the C-C bonds within the graphene film may be fractionated or broken, leading to a change in the film's resistance.Through this mechanism, the electronic skin can measure normal stress within the range of 0-500 kPa, accurately replicating the appearance of the object being sensed [51].In addition, Sengupta et al. developed a compressible piezoresistive sensor using graphene-PDMS foam for personalized healthcare applications (Fig. 3b).Graphene nanosheets integrated into the PDMS foam's porous structure, forming a nanomaterial network.The sensor displayed remarkable stability through 36,000 cycles of compressive loading, making it suitable for human motion detection and personalized health monitoring [52].
To enhance sensor performance, graphene can be combined with other conductive sensitive materials to leverage a synergistic effect [55].However, achieving uniform dispersion in polymers is challenging, restricting graphene's application in sensors.To overcome this challenge, graphene is often functionalized to yield graphene oxide, which contains numerous oxygen groups.This modification enhances its compatibility with other hydrophilic organic materials.Subsequently, chemical methods are used to reduce graphene oxide, improving its uniform dispersion in polymers and enabling broader applications in sensors.Wang et al. used magnetically rGO@nickel nanowire fillers as the sensing layer of flexible sensors, demonstrating a high sensitivity of 1302.1 kPa −1 (Fig. 3c).When self-installed at the tip of the tweezers, the sensor can monitor tube pressure at different frequencies and amplitudes [53].Wu et al. employed rGO as a conductive filler, cellulose nanofiber (CNF) as a dispersant and structural support, and waterborne epoxy as a polymer matrix to create flexible composite sensors with a piezoresistive effect (Fig. 3d).The results revealed that the composite sensors established a stable enhanced conductive network, leading to significant changes in the mechanical properties and electrical resistivity of the composites.The resulting composite film demonstrated remarkable characteristics: it could endure substantial deformation (over 55% strain), exhibited a gauge coefficient ranging from 34 to 71, and maintained stable piezoresistive properties within a strain range of 4% [54].
While there have been numerous studies on utilizing graphene in flexible sensors, its lack of a bandgap limits its advancement in sensor applications.However, other 2D transition metal sulfide nanomaterials (such as MoS 2 , WS 2 , etc.) have a moderate carrier mobility, which make up for the performance of graphene in this field.As a non-toxic and environmentally friendly 2D semiconductor material with tunable bandgap, MoS 2 has been proved to have excellent performance.There are still relatively few reports on piezoresistive sensors.Yang and colleagues developed an advanced pressure sensor by incorporating MoS 2 -PDMS as a conductive active layer, along with layered micro-network veins serving as an isolation layer (Fig. 4a).The device exhibited remarkable features and demonstrate excellent stability [56].
Liu and colleagues developed a multifunctional actuator by combining MXene and low-density polyethylene through a simple drop-casting technique [59].In this approach, the 2D MXene layer efficiently absorbs electrical energy, transforming it into thermal energy.
Subsequently, this thermal energy heats the actuator, causing the thermoplastic low-density polyethylene to expand [60].Furthermore, the actuator demonstrates the ability to function as a walking robot, achieving speeds of up to 16.52 mm min −1 .This study introduces a groundbreaking approach to broaden MXene applications, especially in contexts like the ongoing COVID-19 situation, where non-contact solutions are essential.The actuator can serve as a light-controlled (or thermal) switch, seamlessly integrated into circuits.This innovation finds utility in applications demanding non-contact solutions, even in extreme scenarios (Fig. 4b) [57].In recent years, researchers have extensively explored Ti3C2Txtype MXene for constructing flexible pressure sensors known for their high sensitivity.This interest stems from MXene's metal conductivity, excellent hydrophilicity, and mechanical properties.However, during the chemical wet preparation of MXene, the transition metals' unstable valence states lead to varying degrees of oxidation, raising questions about irreversible oxidation's impact on electrical conductivity and sensing capabilities.Addressing this, Ma and colleagues introduced a groundbreaking paper-based MXene piezoresistive pressure sensor.Through a combination of experimental analysis and density functional theory, they delved into the impact of in-situ oxidation degree on the sensor's sensitivity.The study revealed a remarkable sensitivity for the partially oxidized MXene-based paper sensor.Additionally, MXene paper-based sensing elements outshine their polymer counterparts by being easily degradable and environmentally friendly.These MXene-based sensors exhibit promising applications (Fig. 4c, d) [58].

2D nanomaterials for medical health
The human body is mainly composed of soft, movable tissues, with neural tissue being the softest and most viscous.This mechanical mismatch between tissue organs and traditional hard, bulky medical devices can easily cause damage to neural tissue [61,62].To tackle this concern, soft bioelectronic devices have been engineered with mechanical properties closely resembling the human tissue.These devices can prevent unnecessary mechanical damage from implants while forming tight and robust contacts with curved and moving organs, making them suitable for long-term implantation in living organisms.2D materials with atomic-scale thickness are ideal candidates as electronic building blocks for creating high performance bioelectronic devices [63].For instance, graphene is able to be bent and wrinkled without altering its original electrical properties, a feat not achievable with traditional electronic materials.The reduced device thickness and increased device softness and flexibility minimize the mechanical stress of the implantable device on the target tissue.Soft biomedical devices based on 2D materials can fit perfectly to the human body without eliciting an immune response [64].For instance, soft neural implants made from graphene exhibit remarkably low stiffness.This characteristic enables them to reduce mechanical damage to neural tissue while seamlessly integrating with the brain in a conformal manner.Ultrathin graphene-based biosensors have also been successfully implanted on curved teeth, facilitating the detection of bacterial content at the level of single-cell.Moreover, the human body releases diverse biological fluids containing vital biochemical substances that offer valuable insights into metabolism and chronic diseases.Biosensors play a pivotal role in monitoring these biochemical levels by detecting alterations in electrical signals provoked by the presence of biochemicals on the sensor surface.To achieve accurate diagnosis, these biosensors must have high sensitivity for detecting trace substances.Typically, sensitivity is contingent upon the specific surface area of the biosensor, increased surface areas resulting in larger electrical signal changes caused by the adsorption of biochemical substances.As 2D materials are atomically thin, biochemicals adsorbed by the receptors induce significantly signals than conventional bulk materials, resulting in higher sensitivity for biosensors based on 2D materials.For instance, a wearable graphene-based glucose sensor exhibits exceptional sensitivity, enabling the detection of glucose concentrations as low as 10 μM, while MoS 2 -based humidity sensors showed the sensitivity up to 10 4 (Fig. 5a) [65].In 2022, Bao et al. researched and designed a flexible and stretchable neurochemical biosensor based on 2D graphene, crafted through laser patterning of a metal-complexed polyimide.The sensor synergized the outstanding mechanical properties of 2D graphene with its versatile chemical sensing capabilities.This unique combination allows it to detect the dynamics of multiple neurotransmitters in both the brain and gut [66].
Absolutely, transparency is a vital characteristic for materials employed in soft bioelectronics.Opaque wearable electronics, when affixed to the skin, may lead to discomfort visualization.This potential interference emphasizes the need for using transparent or non-opaque materials in these devices to maintain clear visualization and ensure accurate surgical procedures.Fortunately, 2D materials possess atomic-level thickness, which gives them transparent characteristics, allowing most of the incident light to pass through the material rather than being absorbed (Fig. 5b) [67].A variety of graphene-based bioelectronic devices, including, pH sensors, cell sensors, and tumor, have recently been designed and prepared [68].Thanks to their transparency, surgeons can treat the colon cancer.Additionally, wearable graphene and MoS 2 based strain gauges can be used to quantitatively analyze the status of daily body movements (Fig. 5c) [69,70].
Biocompatibility is crucial for the long-cycle life wearable bioelectronic devices.Implantable devices can consistently monitor biological signals with high accuracy by measuring changes in impedance.To avoid chronic immune responses, every material that makes up a bioelectronic device should be biocompatible.2D materials exhibit excellent biocompatibility and establish intimate contact with biological tissues (Fig. 5d) [71].For example, graphene-based devices achieved high-quality biosensing and stimulation by building a good interface with tissues.Graphene electrodes have been combined with cell sheets, creating a biocompatible interface for physioelectric sensing.Moreover, a biodegradable sensor utilizing MoS 2 monolayer has been developed for constructing a transient system.This MoS 2 -based biodegradable sensor is capable of monitoring intracranial strain, temperature, pressure, motion, and eventually disappears in the hydrolysis of the organism, with extremely low toxicity and no side effects [28].

2D nanomaterials for display
Electronic skin, an ultra-thin electronic device capable of simulating the sense of touch, stands apart from conventional hardware due to its soft, flexible nature.It can be shaped into various forms, making it adaptable for diverse applications.For instance, it can function as a coat, such as on the surface of a robot, and it can also be used in human prosthetic surgery that encounters severe skin trauma (such as burns or skin diseases).This new type of artificial skin can sense changes in external pressure, temperature, etc., and send signals to our brains through circuits, resulting in a nearreal sense of touch [72].Recently, the advancement of artificial electronic skin has achieved certain results, it must be sensitive to multiple signals such as humidity and pressure while applied to simulate, restore or even replace the skin of the body.The demand for functionally integrated device arrays has attracted more and more attention.The traditional working mode of artificial electronic skin is mostly based on contact sensing, that is, the magnitude of the mechanical stimulus can be judged by the change of the electrical signal after the external stimulus and the sensor are in contact with each other.This working mode will inevitably make the working process much slower.There is a risk of crossinfection when people operate the same equipment, especially in a pandemic device, therefore, non-contact operation mode is preferred to minimize the risk [73].
Due to the size advantages of 2D materials and their flexibility and easy attachment to different substrates, the artificial electronic skin based on 2D nanomaterials not only has multifunctional sensing functions similar to skin, but also has high sensitivity, fast response time, multi-working Patterns and other performance far exceed human skin [74].Professor Jun's research team developed a multifunctional and high-performance graphene-based substrate by attaching conductive RGO sheets to flexible and porous PDMS substrate for stress-sensing electronic skin.The PDMS substrate was prepared by steam-etching and modified with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane and a GO coating was dip-coated, based on the introduction of Cu 2+ as a cross-linking point to achieve GO.The controllable multi-layer construction of the sheet, and finally the selective reduction using steam, obtained different patterned RGO/ porous PDMS flexible electronic sensor devices.The graphene bioelectrodes exhibited exceptional stretchability, enduring mechanical stress through 5000 cycles of stretching and releasing.Additionally, the graphene strain sensors demonstrated high sensitivity, covering a broad sensing range of up to 40% strain.The construction method of the flexible electronic skin is simple and cost-effective, eliminating the need for complex processes like vacuum sputtering, making it convenient for large-scale preparation (Fig. 6a) [75].
Zhao et al. used graphene and molybdenum disulfide devices to design a multi-modal artificial electronic skin based on comprehensive 2D materials, which enabled non-interference and high-sensitivity real-time monitoring of external strain, humidity and other signals (Fig. 6b, c).This technology was effectively employed in a human respiratory signal monitoring system, showcasing ultra-high sensitivity (over 400 for strain and approximately 104 for humidity sensing), high stability (lasting for more than 1000 cycles), and quick response.In particular, non-contact mode is proposed to provide an early warning of the position signal of an approaching object, thus effectively avoiding the risk of crossinfection when multiple people use the device in the contact mode.This achievement offers a novel concept for the further application of sensors utilizing 2D materials in artificial prosthetics, flexible smart wear and other fields, thus enabling safe and efficient use [76].In conclusion, despite the numerous scientific issues that remain to be addressed, the future of electronic skin looks promising.

Rechargeable lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) represent a crucial advancement in energy storage technology, experiencing rapid development owing to their extended lifespan, high energy density [80].Researchers have primarily concentrated on designing and synthesizing innovative electrode materials for rechargeable LIBs due to their pivotal role in determining the electrochemical performance.The focus lies in developing materials with both high lithium storage capacity and excellent conductivity [81].2D materials with expanded interlayers possess an open structure that enhances the storage and efficient transport of ions and electrons.This characteristic significantly enhances the performance of batteries when utilized as electrode materials for LIBs.Additionally, increasing the interlayer distance is advantageous as it reduces strain, resulting in improved efficiency of the battery system [82].As an illustration, envision a fiber-shaped LIB intricately woven into fabric, capable of powering electrochemical analysis and facilitating wireless data transfer.Despite their prevalence in the wearable energy sector, existing lithium-ion battery technologies are predominantly planar, bulky, and rigid [83].Zheng et al. introduced a groundbreaking innovation: the inaugural prototype of all-solid-state planar lithium-ion microcapacitors.These microcapacitors were constructed and specifically designed for flexible and wearable electronics.Employing a layer-by-layer filtration technique with graphene nanosheets exfoliated by electrochemically method, the researchers successfully created asymmetric interdigital microelectrodes featuring a planar geometry.The resulting microcapacitors exhibited remarkable flexibility, maintaining stable performance even when subjected to bending and twisting.Furthermore, they demonstrated superior integration, marking a significant advancement in the realm of flexible energy storage device [84].
Supercapacitors (SCs) emerge as a promising solution to energy storage challenges, given their high energy density, rapid charging and discharging capabilities, and stable performance [38].To align with the evolving needs of portable electronic devices, flexible and even Capacitors made of 2D materials as electrode materials have good mechanical properties, not only can be curled and folded arbitrarily, but also will not cause significant performance loss.When 2D oxide materials are applied to electrolytes, almost all electrons can participate in the reaction, which has great potential in SCs [85].
Zhu et al. developed a unique 3D-nanostructured electrode comprising TiO 2 nanotube array, MnO 2 nanosheet, and polypyrrole, capable of functioning in acidic conditions (Fig. 7a-c).The constructed electrode was used to assemble an asymmetric supercapacitor, showcasing impressive performance metrics: a high energy density, a robust power density, and excellent cycling stability, retaining over 80% of its capacity after 20,000 cycles.The impressive cycling stability was attributed to the protective role of the polypyrrole shell surrounding the internal MnO 2 .This shell acted as a barrier, restricting the dissolution of MnO 2 during the discharge process [86].
According to reports, 2D MXene materials are excellent substrates for creating supercapacitors.This is because they contain functional groups such as -F, -OH, or -O, which enhance the interaction of positively charged monomers and enable the polymerization of conductive polymers [90].Zhang et al. introduced hybrid electrodes for wearable supercapacitors using Ti 3 C 2 Tx MXene.They transformed 2D MXene sheets into a sturdy, interconnected cellular structure, and added rGO as a conductive binder through strong π-π stacking between the sheets.This hybrid MXene foam demonstrated excellent compressibility and electrochemical performance, making it suitable for wearable applications (Fig. 7d-g) [87].To enhance the performance of SCs, researchers blend conductive polymers with 2D MXene materials to make flexible SCs, which gained significant interest because it improve the charge transfer, leading to enhanced energy densities.For instance, Jian et al. developed a 3D MXene/ polypyrrole composite electrodes using an in situ chemical polymerization.The created 3D structured composite promoted electron and ionic transport, resulting in symmetric SCs with a high specific capacitance.Additionally, these SCs exhibited remarkable reliability and maintained approximately 86.4% retention for 5000 cycles cycling.This development offers the potential for preparing high-performance composite devices based on 2D MXene [91].
Layered double hydroxide (LDH) is a class of 2D materials with great potential for preparing high-performance flexible SCs [92].To meet this energy requirement, Liang et al. introduced a high-performance flexible supercapacitor designed for wearable storage devices.This supercapacitor features Co-Ni LDH nanosheets as the positive electrode.The deposited Co-Ni LDH nanomaterial on the pregnant woman cloth, given full play to the porous and flexible characteristics of 2D materials.The prepared supercapacitors exhibited impressive attributes, including remarkable power density and energy density, excellent flexibility, and stability.These characteristics make them suitable for serving as energy storage devices [93].Amin et al. created hierarchical morphology of Ni/NiCo-LDH nanotube networks, forming a self-supporting electrode for SCs.The resulting 3D core-shell structure combined the benefits of the Ni network core, including outstanding conductivity and rapid electron transfer, with the advantages of 2D NiCo-LDH nanosheets, such as increased reactive sites.The results demonstrated that the structure can endow SCs with high volumetric energy density (Fig. 7h, i) [88].
To leverage the diverse characteristics of 2D nanomaterials, researchers prepared sandwich-structured 2D MXene/GO/LDH composites by integrating 2D nanomaterials.Chen et al. prepared a sandwich-like MXene/GO/ LDH nano matrix for high performance supercapacitor, demonstrating distinctive structure that delivers exceptional performance (Fig. 7j).Owing to its heterogeneous structure, avoiding the issues of the stacking of MXene.Additionally, it prevents the collapse of LDH morphology, significantly enhancing LDH's specific capacity.Meanwhile, GO serves as a thin layer, coating the surface of nanocomposite supercapacitor with a precise structure, expediting charge transfer, and increasing the electron density of the materials.As a result, he combined effect of various composites enhances the active sites and boosts the electrode's electroactivity in redox reactions.This improvement enables the asymmetric supercapacitor to achieve a high specific energy while maintaining a remarkable capacity retention [89].
The rise of wearable electronics has led to a growing need for flexible energy storage devices [96,97].Flexible LIBs offer higher energy density, but their inherent safety concerns and potential environmental issues have hindered their wide applications; Flexible supercapacitors have the advantage of outstanding power density, yet their limited energy density and short discharge duration hinder their practical use.Zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs) have attracted increasing attention in wearable electronics, due to their noteworthy features of high theoretical capacity and affordability [98].Among them, the aqueous Zn/MnO 2 battery with ZnSO 4 /MnSO 4 as the electrolyte has the advantages of wide electrochemical window, high specific capacity, low cost, environmental protection and simple fabrication, and is considered to be one of the most potential candidate in flexible ZIBs [99].For instance, Li et al. fabricated a hierarchical core-shell structure composed of well-aligned nanowire arrays.This structure was achieved by in-situ growing TiN and V 2 O 5 on the surface of plasma-treated carbon nanotube fibers through a hydrothermal method (Fig. 8a).Benefiting from the synergistic effect of TiN's inherent high conductivity, good interfacial buffering effect, and the high capacity of sheet-like V 2 O 5 , the aqueous ZIBs exhibited outstanding performance, demonstrating excellent flexibility and integration capabilities.Additionally, ZIBs displayed good cycle stability with a capacity retention of 90.6% after 3500 cycles (Fig. 8b) [94].
Electrochemical catalysis can be viewed as the process of converting electrical energy into chemical energy [100].Similarly, a solar cell transforms light energy into electrical energy by utilizing the photoelectric or photochemical effect [101].Carbon nanomaterials demonstrate remarkable electrical conductivity and strong light absorption capabilities, resulting in effective photodegradation and photocatalysis process.These qualities also render them ideal for use in solar cells (Fig. 8c,  d) [95].Researchers have developed solar cells according to Schottky junctions within graphene nanosheets and Si.The graphene nanosheet film serves a dual purpose: it acts as a transparent electrode with exceptional light transmission and functions as a Schottky junction layer for separating electron-hole pairs and facilitating hole transport.As a result, the photogenerated carriers are separated, causing holes and electrons to diffuse to both ends of the graphene and silicon, respectively [102,103].

2D nanocomposite flexible fabric materials for wearable electronics
Throughout the ages, clothes have always been necessary to wear, which can be beautiful embroidered silk, ragged clothes, night walks in brocade clothes, comfortable in warmth and coldness.A piece of clothing, from the basic function of sheltering from the wind and cold, to the obsession with beautiful things, the perception of success and fame, and finally evolves into people's ultimate demand for health.With the popularization of 5G technology, electronic fabrics are fundamentally changing daily lives by interacting with the human body and the environment [104][105][106].Clothes, as a new type of carrier, can continuously obtain human physiological information, bringing disease prevention and health protection into the era of personalized precision medicine [107].One of the keys to the advancement of flexible wearable devices like e-textiles is the stable operation of the power supply.Wearable fabrics range from professional sportswear to everyday apparel [108].The difficulty lies in creating electronic clothing that is as comfortable, soft and washable as other traditional clothing.Interconnects and electronics must be robust and unobtrusive.This requires: insulated, robust, and waterproof reliable terminals; flexible, clothing-based antenna and transceiver solutions; insulated wires that are elastically conductive; small, dryable batteries; and materials that are wrinkleand curl-resistant [109].
Over the past few decades, significant strides have been taken in the fields of flexible SCs and LIBs to cater to the demands of wearable bioelectronic devices [111].
In terms of industrial scale-up, Peng's research team has successively carried out methodological research on continuous battery assembly and packaging, and finally realized the continuous and stable preparation of highperformance fiber LIBs (Fig. 9) [110].The capacity of the fiber LIB increases linearly with the length.Considering its total mass, a 1 m-long fiber LIB boasts an energy density exceeding 80 Wh kg −1 , enabling it to power commercial wearable devices like heart rate monitors for over 2 days continuously.At the same time, the fiber battery fabric can work normally under harsh conditions such as bending, dynamic deformation, high and low temperature (− 20-60 °C), puncture and washing, showing good application potential.The research team further obtained a high-performance and high-safety large-area battery fabric through the textile method, and carried out some functional demonstrations in real application scenarios, allowing for safe and stable wireless charging of a smartphone kept in the wearer's pocket.The whole process lasted for 40 min, and no obvious heating phenomenon occurred, showing good safety.In addition, the research team integrated the fiber LIB and fiber sensor with the display fabric.During exercise, the fiber sensor measures sodium and calcium ion levels in sweat.It sends this data to a chip, which then transmits the signal to the screen.This provides the possibility for the application of smart medical care in the future.The challenge in the electronic wearables market is to create devices that can provide useful data to help improve our lives.Whether worn on the wrist, head or feet, wearables must be stylish, durable and easily rechargeable [109].

c) Conformity and accuracy in soft body wearables:
The human body, inherently soft, contrasts starkly with current rigid wearable sensors, leading to mechanical mismatches in Young's moduli.This rigidity impedes the establishment of conformal contact, causing dislocation during body movements and compromising data accuracy.Maintaining precision in biometric information is paramount; inaccuracies could render the data unusable for health assessments.Overcoming this challenge requires the development of flexible sensors that can seamlessly adhere to the body's contours, ensuring accurate and reliable data acquisition.
